Lot Six: A Memoir

Lot Six is a heartbreaking, hilarious memoir that explores what it means to be a person in a world where everyone is inventing themselves.

David Adjmi, a playwright born into an insular religious community, struggles with depression and identity as he tries to suppress his homosexual feelings and fit in.

When pushed to the breaking point, he makes the bold decision to cut off his family and leave everything behind, but who should he be? This memoir follows David's journey as he pieces together a new adult self through identities stolen from fashion magazines, philosophy books, sitcoms, and foreign films.

Will this foundation for a life or quicksand? Lot Six offers a quintessentially American tale of an outsider striving to reshape himself in the funhouse mirror of America.
